Phenomenal guitars. I think it's a mix of things - they've never had any interest in making "budget" models (and they stamp down had and fast on anyone else who tries it too close) - so the price of entry is abit high for people. I think they also suffer a bit from their main associations for many players being the BVeatles and the Birds; a lot of folks don't realise just how versatile they are. Obviously you have Lemmy with the basses; Glen Matlock was also a Ric man in his original Pistols days (though he played Fenders during the reunion gigs. I believe now he's mostly switched to guitar because of a bad back?). One of the boys in Joyrider (1990s Northern Ireland alt rock / punk band) played a Ric 360, cracking sound. I think far too often a particular style of guitar gets (at least visually) associated with a certain style of music, and so guitar players, being an inherently conservative breed, avoid it if it's not their style of music. We're lucky Buddy Holly didn't do that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
